Holy handgrenade of awesomeness, Batman!  This is really REALLY cool!

[Xerberus]

just wow, if these get implemented into the different DF versions then HOLY COW.....oh dear lord....that made me cry^^.

Super-Necro, because Obsidian Soul brought the topic up. I all but forgot about it.

The new Twbt version makes this very easy.

I can see myself doing all the workshops / wagons in fortress mode in the phoebes style if someone would collaborate with me to do the scripting / coding.

Also, does anyone see the potential for trees and grasses?

[Meph]

There is no scripting involved, but you need to write entries in one file, the override.txt which is included in Twbt.

Its one line per tile that is changed, so 9 lines for most vanilla workshops. Many people can help you with that, I'd do it myself if I had the time.

This thread was trying to get better trees and grasses if you read it you may get an idea of what can be done with it.

I'm pretty sure someone out there did a a overrides for most of the workshops (I'm pretty sure fricy has a copy of it), though it wasn't as indepth as this thread goes into just a tile change to more suitable existing tiles.

Be careful though, RPGmaker VX's rtp-graphics actually require you to own rpgmaker vx to use them, as in, use them legally. They're not 'free' graphics.

shouldn't there be lots of free community filesets which could be used even if you can't use RPGmaker itself?

not sure but https://vxresource.wordpress.com/category/resources/ looks like something you could use... guess there will be lots of japaniese sites?

EDIT: ok, guess you guys know the site already    just found the basics of the 2 Merchants posted by Meph on the site   http://vxresource.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/tileb.png

Seeing a 3x3 tile big dragon lumbering across the landscape would be awesome.
Or 2x2 tile big giants and such.

Even if there will be issues where half their body is "on top of a dwarf", i think its fairly thematic and accurate. Fighting a dragon, you WOULD be stepping on its legs and tail

I apologize for the necro, but this seemed to be the most appropriate place to mention this.

Free 3D assets, though it's fuzzy on whether you can render DF assets from them.  May be of general interest to people interested in 3D models.

Free you say?

All of the content is compatible with Unreal Engine 4, which Epic Games made free for download and use earlier this year. Rights-wise, Epic Games says that the assets are free to use "in any Unreal Engine 4 project, no strings attached." It isn't clear if you're allowed to rework the assets, or to use them in another game engine.

It should also be noted that this isn’t an entirely altruistic gesture: developers who use Unreal Engine are expected to tithe 5% of their gross revenue after the first $3000 (£2000) per product per quarterly period.

And your revenue from a DF mod is...?
Besides it's still something interested people can inspect.

No I merely meant that.
